I like to lift heavy things, make colorful food, write, and talk about pop culture.

Crockpot Chickpea and Quinoa Curry

As I learn to cook, I stick to a lot of recipes, but this weekend, I couldn’t find anything that resembled exactly what I wanted, so I developed my own.

For lunches, I love to throw something together in one big pot, wait a few hours, and voila! I also like to include vegetarian options as I tend to eat a lot of chicken for dinners and it helps mix things up!

In a crockpot:

1 cup quinoa

1 can coconut milk

1 can tomato paste

1 can chickpeas

1 cup lentils

1 sweet potato

2 cups water

vegetables of choice (I went with broccoli, cauliflower, and red pepper)
